Talking about that... the barometric pressure sensor is a common rattling part. It is held in place by small bent tabs. What is the correct way to firm it in place short of using duct tape?

A little epoxy fixes most rattles.

Yikes, that does look a little bit second hand.

Spray the parts that are supposed to move with WD-40, and the parts that are static - wrap them in duct tape. It will be good as new!

Well, the two relays showed up last night from Pelican. One is a spare....slipped it in and she fired right up.

Now I will find a convertible top shop to fix the leak. It was replaced twenty years ago and is due....

That's great news JB. Sealing idea doesn't sound bad at all, an extra bit of insurance. RTV or similar maybe. I hate to ask, did the DME itself get spared?

The relay was resting on the floor. The DME had a bit of space and did not get a bath.
